Eleanor watched the discussions on the StarNet through her personal computer screen, her face beaming with joy. Qiao You was her lucky star!
Isn't this better than trying every possible public relations tactic?
It doesn't cost any money or time; all you need is for Your Highness Qiao You to do a couple more live streams, and you'll have everything you need?
Tsk, didn't Luns say last time that he should find an opportunity to kowtow to Prince Qiao You?
She has to kowtow too!
They'll go once His Highness and the others return from Yunlai Star!
Capital Star, Royal Palace.
"You bitch! Even in death you're still fighting with me!" Leidensin was furious and smashed things in the bedroom.
The maids standing on either side didn't dare to breathe, let alone try to dissuade them.
The Empress's temper is getting worse and worse. She beats and scolds them if they are not careful. Fortunately, when Empress Qingyue was alive, she promoted royal reforms and did not allow the arbitrary killing of maids and guards. Otherwise, they would have died countless times.
They could only clean up after the Empress had vented her anger.
"You shameless woman! You can't even rest in peace in death!" Leidenxin was really furious. When Su Shu was alive, she was a concubine and had to give way to her in everything; now that Su Shu was dead, those ignorant people still cursed her as being inferior to Su Shu!
Another loud crash followed, and Helian Tu entered just in time to hear his mother angrily berating Su Shu.
"Mother." Helian Tu has come today to ask Leidenxin for a favor.
"Fool! You didn't even announce the arrival of the Second Prince!" Leidenxin slapped his personal maid across the face.
Zhu Yue could only kneel down and beg for mercy. At this time, she could only beg for mercy and could not make any excuses.
Although it was the Empress's order, the Second Prince's arrival did not require prior notification.
"Get out of here!" Leidensing roared.
Helian Tu could only pretend not to see this scene, and the maid and guards withdrew very politely.
"Mother, I have a request for you." Helian Tu sat down next to Leidenxin.
After all, he was her own child, and Leidensing still loved him, only her father's side...
"You go first."
Helian Tu knew what his mother was thinking; it was nothing more than the honor of the Leiden family.
His mother was thoroughly brainwashed by his good maternal grandfather, and her heart was only with the Leiden family; even her own son had to take a backseat.
But this time, Helian Tu found the thing her mother cared about most: Su Shu.
"Mother, you were suppressed by Su Shu back then, and now I am constantly suppressed by Helian Jue. I must get my revenge." Helian Tu said while watching Leidenxin's expression.
"If we seize Helian Jue's spirit pet and use it for ourselves, wouldn't everything change?" Helian Tu coaxed her slowly, "Mother, it was because of that mermaid that you were so angry today..."
The last sentence struck a chord with Leiden.
"That merman! I'll definitely give him a good slap!" Leidenxin said through gritted teeth. If it weren't for him, who would remember that bitch Su Shu now?
Helian Tu was secretly pleased. It seemed there was a chance. "As long as that little mermaid becomes my spirit pet, Mother can do whatever she wants, right?"
Leidensing was somewhat tempted, but she hadn't lost her mind. "Let me think about it."
“Okay!” Helian Tu replied, “Helian Jue took his spirit pet to Yunlai Star, and he should be back after the celebration day ends.”
"This is the best time to make a move."
"Mother, we cannot miss this opportunity."
...
Capital Star, Leiden family mansion.
"Master, Miss wants to see you," a guard reported. "She invites you to the palace for a talk."
Leidenhong sat in the main seat, holding two snow-white pearls, each about half the size of a fist, which he slowly turned around in his hands.
Did they say what it was about?
The guard knelt down and said, "Miss didn't say it explicitly, she just wanted to see the head of the family."
Leidenhong waved his hand: "You may leave now, I understand."
